Abstract:In this study, the effects of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) deficiency on the biological growth under respirometric conditions, first-and second-order biological oxygen demand (BOD) progressions using two different BOD measurement techniques and metal toxicity effects on the respirometric BOD are investigated. The effects of CO 2 deficiency in the growth of bacteria and related effects on the first-and second-stage BOD progressions are investigated using various media with respirometers in comparison with the BOD dil… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
